  1. I like Dairy Queen Blizzards much better. There's so many flavors to choose from. I don't like M&M McFlurry's or Oreo ones, too boring.


  2. Their probaly the same. Both HORRIBLE. And neither of them taste good. Because their fattening.

  3. DQ Blizzard all the way

  4. I think DQ's blizzard is better than MD's McFlurry. the Blizzard is probably more unhealthy than MD's McFlurry. I don't like the McFlurry as much as DQ's Blizzard. I JUST LOVE DQ'S FLAVORS!!!!!!!! Theres one @ the mall that I go to sometimes. I LOVE the cookie dough blizzard!

  5. I think a DQ Blizzard is more unhealthy thab a MD McFlurry. I'd prefer a DQ Blizzard apposed to a MD McFlurry.

  6. im not really sure which is more healthy..it might actually be mickey d's cause theeres not as much toppings to choose from like blizzards. it depends what kind of blizzard/flurry your getting.. and i personally believe that blizzards taste betteer, just because theres much more things to choose from.

  7. They are both pretty unhealthy.  Actually, this is an older place, I don't know if anyone heard or rememberes it, (if you are from Illinois) mainly, it was called c**k Robin, it was the best, the best double cheeseburgers and shakes.

  8. Both unhealthy. Both are good in moderation. So eatem alternativelyyyee

  9. Better: DQ Blizzard

    More unhealthy: DQ Blizzard

  10. I do like the Blizzard though never tried a McFlurry yet. If you've heard of Culver's they have awesome Concrete Mixers made with frozen custard. They're like a Blizzard but not as sweet, so you won't get a sugar buzz and will feel just as good after you ate one.

  11. DQ Blizzards have more calories than MD's and I personally think McDonald's taste better too.

  12. I love Dairy Queen's blizzard...way much better than the McFlurry. Did you ever get the McFlurries and the candy they put in there is stale?! That's why I don't even waste my money there anymore, Dairy Queen has my vote.

  13. A small chocolate chip cookie dough Blizzard has 720 calories.

    A large strawberry CheeseQuake Blizzard has 990 calories.

    But they both do taste better than the McDonald's McFlurry!

  14. It depends on what you get---

    if I go to McD's I don't have much of a choice so I have to get oreo but if i go to DQ my favorite is Hawaiian--I definitely would not get Oreo there-so Oreo mcflurry compared with dq Hawaiian blizzard

    Oreo MC Flurry           Hawaiian Blizzard

    Calories--550              440

    total fat---17                  15

    sat. fat--- 9                     10

    trans fat---1                      .5

    cholesterol--50               40

    sodium         250            180

    carbs--------88                  67

    so maybe the oreo is higher at dq but like I said with more options it is highly likely that something else will appeal to my taste--

    Hawaiian Blizzard hands down for taste!

  15. FLURRY IS YUCKY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    BLIZZARD ISA YUMMY! NOT  YUVKY FLURRY IS VERY YUCKY BECAUSE IT COMES FROM YUCKY PLACE!!!!!

  16. FLURRY FLURRY FLURRY FLURRY! UCKY UCKY UCKY UCKY! BLEH! I JUST ATE ONE AND ME GO PUIKEY IN TOILET

  17. DQ hands down.  The McFlurry is a blizzard rip off.  The blizzad has better ice cream and offers FAR more choices in terms of add ins.  If you want a cheeseburger or a sweet tea (so good!) go to McD's but for ice cream--go to the king..or Queen.

  18. McDonald's McFlurry is more unhealthy. Dairy Queen's Blizzard tastes better!!!!

  19. They're both delicious but mcdonalds doesn't have as good of a selection anymore, their butterfinger mcflurry was bomb! but now im pretty sure they only have oreo and M&M .. atleast where i'm from. They have really cheap delicious sundaes though but when it comes to blizzards DQ owns they have the coolest flavors and way more of a selection. While neither is heathy for you, dairyqueen's actual softserve is better for you because it's made with a milk base instead of cream so it's less fat, what better way is there to get in your calcium :)?

  20. DQ Cookie Dough Blizzard is my ultimate weakness

  21. Blizzards are far superior to Mcflurrys. I don't know about the health aspect though. I have to assume that Mcflurrys are worse though since they come from McDonald's.

  22. a long debated question :)

    A mcflurry has from 550-620 calories, depending on the flavor. its 12.3 oz .

    A blizzard ranges from 550 to almost 1400 calories. It has like a million and one flavors though. Of course if your getting a strawberry banana blizzard, its going to be lower. If you get a brownie batter blizzard with smarties, its going to be higher.

    we'll use oreo mcflurrys and oreo blizzards as the examples.

    Oreo- Mcflurry - 337 g - 550 calories

    Oreo- Blizzard -  334 g - 690 calories

    So, as a rule of thumb, mcflurry is slightly healthier. Both are not good for you though.

    But that being said, a dairy queen blizzard tastes much better, and comes in much better variety.  

    They are similar, but blizzard is waaaaay better.

  23. oh, but there both oh so good, how could anyone decide between both? but i guess if you want creamy, go to DQ, but if you want fresh, go to Mcy D's

  24. dairy queen blizzard is best. they have way more options and mcdonalds only has either m&ms or oreo and that's it. blizzards taste better and come with more icecream and stuff. the quality of a blizzard surpasses that of a mcflurry.

  25. Blizzard I think is better but Mcdonalds can make a good milkshake.

    BK beats them at fries,burgers and basically all the rest of the food they make. Except the mcrib ha ha

  26. Generally speaking, DQ is better for everything than McDonald's and that includes Blizzards being better than McFlurries, except I actually prefer Oreo McFlurries to Oreo Blizzards, but that's the only exception, The advantage of McDonald's is that it's cheaper and that there's more of them. As for health:

    According to the Dairy Queen Website a Medium Oreo Blizzard is

    Calories 680     Calories from Fat 220  

    % Daily Value*

    Total Fat 25g

    38%

       Saturated Fat 12g 60%

       Dietary  1g 4%

       Sugars 74g   

       Protein 14g

      

    And a McDonalds lg Oreo McFlurry which is around the size of a Medium blizzard is

    Calories 690

    Fat 24g

            Saturated 14g

           + Trans 0.4g

    Cholesterol 60mg

  27. DQ tastes way better than Mc-Donald's any day! Theyr'e pretty much the same when it comes to health. I dont sugest eating aton of them though because there pretty high in calories.

  28. I am in favor of dairy queens blizzard more flavor choices and they were the original company to start with.

  29. the blizzard is better because theres so many flavors 2 choose from ad the icecream is better...... i think they're both unhealthy...unless u get fruit in your blizzard instead of candy..that should make it better right?

  30. I am a manager at McDonald's and you do not want to eat a Mcflurry on least you know the day they clean their machine?

    Beside Dairy Queen's is much better!

  31. I'm guessing the McFlurry is probably more healthy, but the Blizzard tastes SOOOOO much better. With the McFlurry, you only get a couple of choices for your "mix-ins", but with the Blizzard, there are tons of ingredients to mix and match, and they are always coming up with special flavors.....egg nog around the holidays, etc.
